This place has everything: Reserve a bocce ball court to play while you enjoy their wines, experience a private tasting in their Library Cave or book the Wine Safari where you can tour the property and have a four course meal. I first tried wine from a steel tank here and now I'm hooked.

Bacigalupi Vineyards is a super accessible, beautiful spot to taste wines. Their grapes were used in the famous wine tasting of 1976 that put California wines on the map. Watch the movie Bottle Shock for a fun retelling of the story. This is the only winery I know of that lets you walk among the vines.
